Make yourself familiar
with the angels, and behold them frequently in spirit; for without being seen they are present with you.

Yarn Dilemma(s)

The greengate blanket is now half done, actually more then half done. Half way was row 85 and then work in reverse. I'm now 7 rows on the second half and I have to wait as I have run out of the light blue. With all the yarn I have you would think I would have a light blue tucked away in the stash, but no. So, a jaunt to Michael's is on the agenda. Trying to condition myself to go in, get only the blue yarn and leave. I can do it, I can do it ... (time will tell!)

I'm really itching to start the Flower Garden Afghan from the last post. Let's see if I can hold out another weekend!

Yes, you can just go in and buy the light blue and leave! Just remember that all that temptation is also work you will have to complete. Concentrate on what you have to work on now! Hope that helped~ LOL ♥♥♥

The greengate blanket is gorgeous! I've not had much time to crochet lately -- a few simple doilies some evenings but that's about it. Doing lots of walking and then just the day to day stuff keeps me busy. I'll be glad when the school year is over and summer vacation begins. Hope you have a lovely weekend. Tammy

Today is God's gift to you, how you use it is your gift to God

Before the Threshold of My Day

I've much to do today, dear Lord,But let me kneel a bitBefore the threshold of my dayThat I may enter itWith mind serene andheart made freshwith fragrant heavenly dew.That every moment of the dayI'll be reflecting you.

May today there be peace within.
May you trust that you are exactly
where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities
that are born of faith in yourself and others.
May you use the gifts that you have received,
and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content with yourself just the way
you are.

Let this knowledge settle into your bones,
and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance,
praise and love. It is there for each and
every one of us.
